What Is A Species? | Evolution | Biology | FuseSchool
Carl Linnaeus classified all living things into groups based upon their physical features. His system placed organisms with the most similar characteristics together in a group he called the “species”. A species is defined as all organisms that are able to breed with one another, and mos

The Healthiest Beetles Grow the Biggest Horns
Exaggerated features such as beetle horns, deer antlers, and long tails in birds are all indications of a male's breeding status within his society—but until recently, how these sexually selected traits have evolved has remained a mystery. In this video, Douglas Emlen describes his researc

Extinction of Species | Evolution | Biology | FuseSchool
When a plant or animal species that once lived stops existing entirely, we say that that species has become extinct. Why do certain species of plants and animals sometimes become extinct? According to the theory of evolution, individuals of the same species show a range of variations. So
